Army advises struggling military families to apply for food stamps

The base salary for an Army private is $21,999.60, according to GoArmy.com, well below the national average salary of $53,490 per year based on the latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The US Army's official website released an advisory for military families struggling with finances due to inflation, and one of the pieces of advice given has turned some heads. Tucked in between sections advising service members to apply for no-interest loans and get financial counseling, was a suggestion to apply for food stamps.
